Full Metal Panic! Review - It Kind Of Is What It Is (opens the original)
Read excerpt

Read excerpt
Jack and Rick check out a random pick this week, a 3,000-year-old demon lord who reincarnates as a nobody kid just to make some real friends, and find out fast whether this isekai has anything new to bring to the table.
